Hello, I'm Drew Logan, and I've been working on a Zelda game with my good friend Matt1000000 for about 4 years. Honestly, you'd think 4 years would be outstanding work, but we never really got into making the game till 2 years ago, and we kept running into crappy errors and I had trouble fixing them. Now, however, the bugs are completed and we've so far made 4 maze levels (Stuck in a castle), a Dungeon including a boss and other levels that I'm too lazy to mention. Please note this is not like a normal LoZ game, where you have to think things through (although we may do that later on), but more on the edge of a maze-type action game. Tiling in most levels are NOT complete, such as the crappy walls in the castle levels 1-5. We're planning to fix it (Scr 1 2 and 3, I believe).
Link includes Bombs, swords, a jumping-off -cliffs engine (may take out) and a boomarang. I also added a Power-sword engine (like in LoZ - Link's Awakening) A heart system is also in place. I may be thinking of adding another addition from Link's Awakening: the Invincible Acorn (or something of that sort)
A lot of the credits go to TRW, seeing as this is based on his engine (He's a god).
The plot, in brief, is about a Witch named Midori who is evil (duh), and wreaks havok all over the world because of a power she has discovered and harnessed. Yada yada yada, get to the top of her Dungeon and kill her to restore world peace.
(Hey, if you can help me think what the power thing should be let me know)
Like the breifness? Anyways, here's some pics of one level or another:

Credits will be dealt with and have been accounted by for 4 years :P If you know something is yours and you see it here remind me, I might have missed you.
Hope you like it ^__^

-
This looks pretty cool actually. I might have to download it when the first demo comes out!
-
Thanks, I enjoy it, I hope you enjoy it too :D
-
Yes. Oh god YES. Place-holder graphics!!
With how much the people on this board use mockups, I was beginning to wonder if place-holder graphics still existed.
-
Mock-ups just let you down. The real stuff matters, and this is what is in-game.
^__^
-
The game looks good.
-
yeah man u posted it sweet 8). i'll get to fixing those few levels soon, i never get to sleep till 2 am lol... any ways nice to c you guys like what me n drew have done sofar ;D
-
Whoa... so ... old. Memories <3. Good to see an old fan game come back.
-
Matt's the Tiler. Look at all the glorious stuff he can do that I can't stand to do :P
And AoDC, This time it won't dissapear :D
-
I'm more of a "level designer" and drews somewhat of my programmer, i ask him to make a object do something and he does it lol, i put tiles down and place stuff in the levels and put solids everywhere. my jobs alot more important than he lets on :P. but for a while it was drew makes the level and i pimp it out lol
-
And AoDC, This time it won't dissapear :D
I've heard that one before.
-
Yea but we're not little kids who get all excited about making something... this is basicly a free time thing (which I get a lot), and I promise there's nothing to stop us from making it.
Making a game by yourself bores me, but with a partner you motivate one another.
:D
-
Yeah, it's Drew! Somehow i'd never heard 'o this. Well, looks cool. :P
-
Kame? THE Kamez Gamez? 0_o
I thought you fell down a hole and died... we go way back ^__^
And, ty, I'm planning to release a demo within the week, since I shouldn't just leave you guys hanging
-
Within the week? I'll hold you to that!
-
I'll have to decide what to put in, and now I'll have to work my ass off for the bugs in "objLinkHurt" :/
Anyone have a good place to host files? Please share.

Yep s'me. :) Yeah, I did fall down a hole, but I crawled out and now I'm back at ZFGC for the 5th time or something. ;D As soon as I saw your name in recent posts, I clicked.

next week? geez drew your pushin it! lol just kidding well i guess maybe i should fix up those few beginning levels and if you want i could use my "imagination" to get a good story line goin seeing as like, we still need a reason for why link is in the towers right. only if you want, you amy say its mine and yours now but you created it man, whatever you want but u know what kind of crazy imagination i have lol :P ;D
-
Hey, I'll call you up later and talk about it. Hopefully you're ok with a demo ^__^
And Kame, nice to see you again :P
Sorry AoDC, I think you're bet is about to be lost :)
-
New news, double posting doesnt really count for this :P
The first 3 screenshots you see... those levels are completely re-tiled. We are finishing it up and then uploading a good ol' demo shortly.
:D
-
Shortly? =O. How many levels will be included?
-
Shortly = a few more days. Depends on how long Matt will be to finish up.
And levels? 1, 2, 3, 4, the chace, castle entrance, first castle, Island of No Return.
Once you achieve the Island of No Return, a man will tell you a tale that begins the adventure for link. A massive field (like OOT, but not like OOT :P), will determine things to where you go and quests to accomplish.
That's the plan, anyways. The field isn't included in the demo
-
K guys well I've Gotten a few levels finished and I think if i work my butt off enough I might get the new story line me and drew came up with included, its going to be tough but, i think i can handle it, if not drew can :P
-
You kidding? I can't handle anything! :P
You're insane at tiling and adding detail to rooms... Actually I think I'll post one of the first levels redone to show them what you can do to a crappy room. XD
BTW, demo out by... Monday?
I believe so.
EDIT: NEW PIC
-
---sorry for double post... this is an update---
Crap... sorry AoDC, I lost your bet. We won't be finished by Monday, maybe a few days later. We haven't finished a few of the bugs that need taken care of, and the storyline isn't done being typed up.
*Gives AoDC a cookie*
-
Hey! That retile of Level 1 looks wondertastic. Hope I see a demo soon. :)
-
Yes, the demo will be coming soon... it's been on hold for a while.
Matt's been having a hard time recently, and less than an hour ago he was hopped up on drugs due to his wisdom teeth being pulled (Only adds to his problems ;().
Som info, though:
All levels have been re-tiled that needed done.
Story line, up to the New World shall be in the demo.
